We may not be a superpower in blatant terms, but where we excel is being a subtle economic superpower with a fair bit of power at our disposal. Ever noticed the amount of vetoing rights that we still hold within the EU, which other countries gave up?

What's the point in nuking us? Sure we'd die - but you wouldn't be able to do fuck all with us thanks to the land being irradiated and generally fucked. Not to mention that you can't take over our economic facilities, money nor resources if you blow them the fuck up.
